Blended Learning
Blended learning is a method of instruction that combines traditional face-to-face classroom methods with online learning activities. In a blended learning setting, students have some degree of control over their learning environment and the time, place, and pace of their learning. This type of learning allows students to access course materials, complete assignments, and collaborate with peers online, while still having the support of an instructor and classmates in the classroom.
In Person Courses
In-person learning is a type of teaching that takes place in a physical location, such as a classroom, lecture hall, or library. In-person learning typically involves direct instruction from an instructor, such as lectures, discussions, and demonstrations.
Virtual Learning (Live)
Live virtual learning is a type of instruction that takes place over the internet using audio, video and other digital tools. It enables students to interact with their teachers and classmates in real-time, allowing them to learn from home or any other remote location. Course materials and lectures are typically delivered via video conferencing software, and students can participate in online discussions and activities.
